Looks like a little port work goes a long way on those 205's.
I agree about Tony. His port work looks like cnc. From my untrained eye all the ports look the same. Tony not only did port work on the heads, but he also did a lot of chamber work to unshroud the valves and take advantage of the larger bore. The car actually sounds like an organ when idling. Those ports are honkin'. Here is a short vid of the first startup and idle. http://tinypic.com/player.php?v=b3t05d&s=3
Listen to the intake as I walk around the front.
The guys at ECS are great. I've known them for quite a while and the outcome is always good when I go there. Top shelf stuff.

I'm on vacation until the 25th. When I get back this weekend I'm planning on doing a video of the characteristics of the car. Idle, driving around town, going out on the highway. Slamming it, etc. I will post that hopefully sometime this weekend. As far as the track, that may take a bit as I am so busy personally right now it might have to wait until fall. But, we'll see...

Sweet man, keep us updated on those vids. Your results definately helped my question on whether or not to upgrade to 225s for my new project. Any plans for the lauging gas in the near future?

Very nice results!! I have been happy with my setup for a few years now. My only regrets are that I didnt send the heads to Tony to get massaged and my crappy headers.... but soon that all might change.

Very nice numbers! I am also in the middle of a 402 build with AFR 205's. It's nice to know that 500/500 is attainable without the driving characteristics of a monster cam.

If you do, talk to him about a cam swap too. He'll be able to spec a cam based on the work he'll do to the heads.

You're gonna love it. 402's can handle larger durations than 346's, I've read about 10 degrees.

I'm workin' on it. I was going to do it this past Sunday. We had just finished the final touches to the low end stuff on the tune and a thunderstorm came up.
I may go out and do it today, if I can get some time.

Only one way to find out! I think it depends on what you want the car to be. A kick *** street car, I think they'd be great especially with the right cam. A a max effort track car, probably not, but I'd defer to the expert on that one.

Sometimes working your way out of trouble is the best way to grow, as in 346 to 402 maybe?
And when you're on the other side life is so much better.
